Astaro 110/120 - 10baseTX
-
Hello
i have been running PFSENSE for a number of years now, i recently (2 years ago) installed it onto my works ex Astaro gateway appliance (110/120) - only recently i have noticed that my LAN is only connected at (100baseTX <full-duplex>) and yet i have a Gb switch.. i dont know how long its been connected at that speed but it explains my speed issues….. the astaro gateway appliance has 4 Gb Ports but when i go into the interface and look under advanced i do not see a 1000 option only 100baseTX <full-duplex>- 10baseTX <full-duplex>etc.... can someone please help me?</full-duplex></full-duplex></full-duplex>

i have also changed cables and tested the switch on other devices, all work and register 1Gb speed
-
Any good?
https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Forcing_Interface_Speed_or_Duplex_SettingsSelect the desired speed and duplex from the drop-down menu, which contains all media types supported by the card. (ex: "100BaseTX full-duplex")

Thank you for the reply
No, i do not have that as an option
-
If you are certain it should be able to do a faster nic speed, see if there are any drivers for it in freebsd 11, which you might be able to use in 10?
I know you can hack later window drivers to make them work on earlier versions of windows, so the above might be an option.

Thanks for that option, but im not too confident with freebsd

What's the ethernet chipset?
Example:
Diagnostics > Command Prompt
grep em0 /var/log/dmesg.boot
$ grep em0 /var/log/dmesg.boot
em0: <intel(r) 1000="" pro="" legacy="" network="" connection="" 1.0.6="">port 0xec00-0xec3f mem 0xfebe0000-0xfebfffff,0xfebc0000-0xfebdffff irq 18 at device 4.0 on pci4
em0: Ethernet address: 00:30:18:b5:22:12How old is it? It appears the older ones were 10/100 only.

And this from 2009 that shows 4 10/100 ports too:

The revision of the device would help. Astaro 110/120 REV3 and lower were 10/100. Does it use an Atom processor or Via C3 Eden

Just checked mine and is is running gigabit. ASG120 REV4.
